If I remember a few history lessons correctly, similar shoes were all the rage in medieval England... There is indeed nothing new under the sun!

In this picture taken Friday May 7, 2011, a man wearing his extra long pointy boots stands next to women at a nightclub in Matehuala, Mexico. The flashy pointy boot-craze has swept through the Mexican town of Matehuala, spread to nearby cities and is being taken by migrants across the border into the United States. Dancing with this guy must be quite a challenge, don't you think? Photo/Dario Lopez-Mills
